Marriage Retreat
Etowah Baptist Church
March 15-18, 2012
Scores of books have been written that offer guidance for building the marriage of your dreams.  Yet, what if God’s primary intent for your marriage isn’t to make you happy but holy?  And, what if your relationship isn’t as much about you and your spouse as it is about you and God?
 
Our retreat teaching focus will uncover how your marriage can become a doorway to a closer walk with God and each other.  You will learn how to:
 
Turn marital struggles into spiritual and personal appreciation
Love your spouse with a stronger sense of purpose
Partner in the spiritual growth and character formation of your spouse
Transform a “tired” marriage into a relationship filled with awe and respect
 
The cost for the retreat is $30 per couple.  This includes a catered dinner.  Must register by March 1st.  For more information call 891-7153.

Operation Inasmuch
Saturday, April 28, 2012 or
Saturday, May 5, 2012
Operation Inasmuch is a one day missions blitz in your community.  Imagine your church active in mission outreach across North Carolina.
Each NC community is unique, and OIAM will help NC churches to consider the needs of their communities and work to meet those needs.  Possible projects include Backyard Bible Clubs, sewing projects, home repairs, wheelchair ramp construction, homebound visitation, yard work for elderly, blood pressure checks, affirmation of public servants, prayerwalks, block parties, garden projects, child care and nursing home ministry. 
OIAM hopes to have projects in all of NC 100 counties.  Think of people in your community who need Christians to touch their lives in the name of Jesus Christ.  On these two days, hundreds of churches and thousands of volunteers will share the love of Jesus with those who have never heard the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Become a part of Rampin’ Up! and help set a record for wheelchair ramps constructed in a single day across NC.
For more information, a list of projects and ideas and to sign up go to http://baptistsonmission.org/events/nc-oiam.  Please take the time to sign up!
